Fifteen traditional rulers from four local government areas of Osun State stormed the office of Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company in Osogbo, on Wednesday to protest poor supply of electricity in their domains.
The monarchs said they decided to make their anger public following threats of violence from some of their subjects over the epileptic supply of electricity in their communities.
The traditional rulers, who were led by the Olufi of Gbongan, Oba Adetoyese Odugbemi, had Apetumodu of Ipetumodu, Oba James Adegoke, Akire of Ikire, Oba Olatunde Falabi, Onikoyi of Ikoyi, Oba Yisau Otunla; Olumoro of Moro, Oba Ezekiel Oyeniyi; Salu of Edunabon, Oba Elijah Oyelade; Alayegun of Odeomu, Oba Lamidi Oke, among others.
The traditional rulers reportedly told the IBEDC Regional Technical Manager for Osogbo, Mr. Salami Waheed, that they would not leave the office unless they were given an assurance on the matter.
Details of the outcome of the meeting between the two parties are not yet known.
